Pokémon Special, known in English as Pokémon Adventures, is a manga series written by Hidenori Kusaka and currently illustrated by Satoshi Yamamoto. It follows the characters granted Pokédexes (the Pokédex Holders, who are based off the player characters and named after the games themselves) in a set of climactic adventures and battles.

Removed link Heeeere ya go. It can't possibly be bad when Satoshi Tajiri creator of the Pokémon franchise, so give him a high-five says it's right on the money.

It's a great series, and one I've mentioned several times in my news posts on PV. Is that site legal though? Since Viz finally resumed the official English release of Adventures, I'd prefer not to have any links here to free fan translations or the like.

I can remove it, if you'd like. DragonGuard only translated a few of the sections (apparently Viz Media translated out of order or something, so DG reordered and retranslated it), and the rest is the official English translation.

They translated the first 7 volumes (through the Yellow arc) then stopped for a long time. Then they started up again from the beginning and are currently in the middle of the G/S/C arc. They also recently started releasing the D/P/P and B/W arcs too, which is kind of weird, but it means that, by the time the main series finishes FR/LG, we'll pretty much be caught up with Japan.

Actually, it probably should be the original Japanese way (Red and Green being the paired versions in Japan, whereas Red and Blue are the paired versions in English games). It really spoils a punchline later on, with "Fire Red and Leaf Green".

Oh yeah, FRLG. My favorite one of 'em all. Though I hate it when they all get petrified by... Darkrai. Oh well, at least they got out. Shame no US release. Particularly like the new designs of the original Dex Holders (but Yellow didn't change, but possibly for the better). Emerald has this uniting feeling that I... just love, for some reason.

Now that G/S/C is finished, R/S/E seems likely to come in the not too distant future. Unless that decide that releasing three arcs at once would be a bit much seeing as they're currently doing D/P/P and B/W.
